Those of you that have been following my tweets might have heard news from the Microsoft camp on the colour of the consoles changing soon.
Microsoft have said that all Xbox 360 consoles will soon be shipped with a matte finish instead of the gloss finish used on the new slim models since their release last June. The 4 GB version of this console already comes with a matte black finish and the larger consoles will now be produced with the same casing.
Xbox Live’s Larry ‘Major Nelson’ Hryb said that "We are actively transitioning all our Xbox 360 S consoles to a matte finish, the consoles will start to arrive in stores over the coming weeks, so if you really love the idea of a glossy console don't wait much longer."
Hryb also noted that Microsoft may continue to use the gloss finish for Limited Edition units, such as with the upcoming Gears of War 3 and Star Wars consoles so you might be able to get your hands on some sort of gloss finishes still in the future.
Obviously the internal console specifications will be the same but if you have your heart set on the gloss black slim console then now is the same to get your wallet out.
